• This is the first campaign that has 5/odd number of player characters instead of the standard 6 or the second used 4 players.
• This is the second Dimension 20 non-Intrepid Heroes season to feature at least three members of the Intrepid Heroes table without one of them in the DM chair, the first being A Court of Fey & Flowers.
• Like in A Crown of Candy, all the players have made backup characters in case their main characters died.
